How To Safeguard Against Rape


If you are a female, chances are 1 in 10 that you will be a
victim of sexual assault. The attacker makes no distinction
between age, race, appearance or any other characteristics.

Common sense is your best defense against attack. Because
every rape is different, there's no one solution for
thwarting an attack.

If you are attacked, evaluate the situation and look for
ways to escape. Some women have avoided rape by talking
their way out of it, acting crazy or fighting back. A
kick in the groin isn't usually successful because men
instinctively protect this area, and you may lose your
balance. If you decide to respond physically, remember
that your first priority is to get away. Act quickly
and derisively to throw the attacker off guard while
you escape.

After an attack:
A. Go to a safe place
B. Call the police.
C. Preserve evidence - don't shower or douche;
blood and semen are important evidence. And don't
change your clothes or disturb the scene of the crime.
D. Get medical care.

Medical attention is vital! Many hospitals provide free care
for rape victims and offer pregnancy prevention and venereal
disease treatment. Remember, even if you do get treatment
immediately, follow-up tests for V.D. are essential.

Never be embarrassed because of the incident. Though difficult
to talk about, it is important to tell doctors what sex acts
took place so they will know what medical attention is needed.

Try to remember in detail your exact experience, for police
records. Give as accurate and complete description of your
assailant as possible. This is extremely important! Your
complete co-operation with local authorities may help in
preventing similar attacks on other girls and women.
